Ribbon Cutting for RaaSa

From our visits to Chutney Masala in Irvington, Spice Village in Tuckahoe and Masala Craft in Hartsdale, readers know we’re big fans of Indian food. We’re excited to learn that RaaSa in Elmsford will mark the official re-launch of the business under new leadership with a ribbon cutting event today at 6:30pm.

RaaSa’s new owners, Ashok Salian and his wife Priya Kapoor-­Salian have very lofty goals for the restaurant and have bought in highly acclaimed Chef Peter Beck. He has been responsible for elevating Indian Cuisine in New York City, where he was noted as one of the James Beard Foundation’s “Top Chefs of 2002”. Chef Beck is a culinary innovator whose restaurants in New York have garnered numerous accolades, including elusive Michelin Stars at Tamarind and Benares.

While only half of FP will be attending the ribbon-cutting, we’re sure to return for dinner together in the very near future.
